1107 Evelyn Ave
Sold for $1,100,000 in August 2022 against a $995,000 ask — $105,000 over, 30 days after listing — having sold six years earlier for $880,000. The house was renovated between those two sales: the 2016 and 2022 photo sets show visibly different interiors, and the bath count goes from 1 to 1.5. The county's value roll shows no change-of-ownership reassessment before 2017, so the house was held by a single owner from at least the March 1976 sale through 2016.

House notes
- Both listings sell it on the builder — the 2016 MLS copy opens "MacGregor style 2 bdr close to Berkeley border but w/Albany Schools", the 2022 copy "adorable MacGregor style home a prime Albany location"
- Renovated between the two sales: the 2016 photos show a red-painted exterior, an O'Keefe & Merritt double oven with griddle, black-tile counters and a red-and-green tiled bathroom; the 2022 photos show a grey repaint, a new kitchen and a new bath
- Gained a half bath between the sales — the 2016 MLS record carries 1 bath, the 2022 record 1.5
- Cedar, glass and Spanish tile solarium runs across the back of the house, described in the 2016 listing as bringing the outdoors in and still present, reglazed, in the 2022 photos
- Solar electric system, EV car charger and tankless water heater all arrived with the renovation, and the photovoltaics are seller-owned rather than leased
- 1,020 sq ft on a 2,500 sq ft lot — 0.06 acres, among the smallest parcels in this collection, with the house running nearly the full width
- Improvements-only jump in the 1993 roll, from $32,468 to $45,119 against land up just 2%, marks a permitted improvement around 1992
- Assessed at $132,370 for the 2016 roll and $880,000 for 2017 — the December 2016 sale reset the Prop 13 basis nearly seven-fold, and the 2022 sale reset it again to $1,100,000
- Tax bill went from $4,708 to $14,316 across those same two rolls, a 204% jump in one year
